--- Quote ---About removing the software, you write removing /usr/local should not harm the system. That's of course correct, but as you also write, you have several other installations there, and they would surely break, if you remove the fodler they are in.

No! They'd just be gone. My menu items would be broken.

What you say is, that a software that is removed is not broken.

But where is the difference between a software, that does not work, because it can not find a lib and a software that does not work, because someone has deleted it ?
Both do not work, and that's the point that interests me, if I want to use software.

And I did not tell you that you should not use ldconfig, the only thing I told you, is that it works here (and on several other actual distros I use for testing purposes) without running ldconfig, and if I remember correctly it also works on ubuntu this way (for me).
But as I wrote, I never install software as root (and that's needed for /usr/local) if it is not absolutely necessary.
And if I am the only user, there's no need to do so.

Again  : please read more carefully:

The cause might be, that I always start with full (or relative) path from console or desktop-file.
The libs are definitely relinked (clearly stated in the buildlog and visible with ldd).

Documentation about apt/dpkg/debian must be on the debian.org web site, not on the Jens' repo.
Why do you want everybody to serve the info you need on a platter?

--- End quote ---

Not everything is off-topic, because some users seem to have a problem with the automake-system, and if someone is brave enough to read through tons of nonseless text to extract the interesting parts, it might be of help for someone, even if the solution (running ldconfig) is in our wiki for a very long time (at least for people who are willing to read).

That's my opinion at the moment, but I'm not the only admin here, and my opinion can change of course.

@BentFX:
be aware, that you are not far away from a ban, if you are not able to calm down and return to a more unemotional discussion.

Should not be too hard for someone who builds his own software.

Yes, I will sort it out. Fact is, inside Synaptics, now that I've thought about it, the original CD(disabled) has a second line of text below it. I just wrote my first patch using nothing but man pages, and trial by fire. I can figure it out.

Other than that... man what a loudmouth I am... Huh?
